Okay so I just got done watching the thing 1982 and like. That movie is AIRTIGHT damn

#fucking love body horror it was so gross #making me think of a particular oc. and I wanna incorporate some of this shit into them #I’ll go into more detail later once I get that sorted out kinda #the dog too it was EERIE #cuz like. you know how huskies are right? loud as shit bouncing off the walls and everything #it was like it was a GUY. it was so still and quiet and aghg #and then that whole part when it got locked into that kennel with the other normal dogs #it was so fucked man. that one dog trying to tear open the gate to escape. and the Assimilation #and the practical effects agghghgh #the part with the head spiderrrr #I can’t remember anyone’s names cuz I’m bad at that when watching movies sometimes but like. #the way that you start being hyperaware of how everyone’s behaving and like. you try to guess who it is. and it’s so hard to tell beyond #maybe one or two little clues if any at all #kinda wanna watch it again sometime and go over it with a fine toothed comb and see if I can spot anything #I’ll shut up nowwww #oh almost forgot but like. the idea of the thing not being One Individual Harmonius Being #and instead being multiple entities without a sense of self that’ll just fuck off entirely #if that part senses that it’s in danger #literally down to the cellular level #is such a rad concept fr
